@BrannanM Agree this makes little sense. Obesity is just one expression of food related ill health. Why not invest to lower the cost of fruit & veg, more cooking and growing programmes, and fair pay and benefits that help people spend more on food? Depressing news on #WorldFoodDay2024

@SonicWhirls Oh yes, I didn’t have space to point out my conscious bias. It is great though, much food for thought. Speaking of which, always here if you want to do an episode on the cultural heritage dimension of food!
